The best restaurants serving British food in West Malling and Leybourne Tonbridge and Malling South East

We had a special afternoon here before Christmas. We are keen cooks and we like to go out to restaurants to have food that we couldn’t create at home and have a proper experience. This was certainly it. Every dish was out of this world. We found it hard to rank them at the end. I’m sure we will speak about this meal in years to come!

First time back here for a couple of years, and still as good as before. Friendly staff, broad well priced menu, and very generous portions of well prepared food.

Lovely old pub with an excellent selection of drinks and an open fireplace in the winter

visited for the first time for lunch. Great company but service so slow in at 12.30 out at 3.30 . I know it was busy but got the impression our mains had been waiting on the side before serving-barely warm. starters dressed crab-sharp taste, small portion nothing to eat it with- should have had toast or sourdough something to enhance some loose picked crab with radichio or sliced cabbage !!!!! Mains halibut- so overcooked it was chewy and nearly cold and i didn't eat all of it despite it being my favourite fish. Prawn dumpling- was it prawn? grainy and tasteless. Champagne sauce taste more like overcooked condensed milk. Couldn't face pudding. Ordered English breakfast tea to follow - . tiny teapot with 2 teabags -soooo strong!!! Noise levels overwhelming will not be returning

Busy place, friendly staff, nice atmosphere
